Prized by chefs and gourmands around the world, Wagyu has long been considered the pinnacle of achievement for beef. Regarded as some of the best meat on the market, 100% full-blooded Wagyu is equivalent to other rare luxuries like Caviar, Truffles, and Jamon Iberico de Bellota. Japanese Wagyu gradings are based on the very comprehensive Japanese Meat quality test. This test studies and grades the four elements of each cut of meat: marbling, color and brightness, firmness and texture, and finally, luster and fat quality. Each element is scored separately, and the category with the lowest score is the one taken as the meat's overall average. The meat yield score (measuring A-C) is combined with this number, giving you a final grade consisting of a letter (yield) and a number (quality). Only 100% full-blooded Wagyu cattle ever receive an A. In comparison, the American grading system for beef given by the USDA is much less strenuous. It is based on one element of the meat, its marbling, and the distribution of said fat. The more intramuscular fat is visible in a piece of meat, the higher the grade. The Japanese grading system is so much more rigorous that it is literally off the (American) charts! Australia, which is where Gourmet Wholesaler sources their meat, has the second-largest herd of Wagyu beef, second only to Japan itself! They even have their own signature beef grading scale rivaling the rigorous Japanese model. Because almost no Japanese Wagyu is available outside the country, Australia has become the go-to source for this fantastic meat.
